6/22/16 Update: Access to the Gold Bar Boulders, Zekes Wall, and Lake Isabel is temporary closed on weekdays to ensure public safety during road work operations for the Dyno timber sale. Access is available Saturday and Sunday. Check back for updates.

Summer 2016 Notice: Timber contractors with DNR have began operations to improve the road for an upcoming timber harvest 2016-2018. When open, stay away from all road work sites and timber activities and respect any temporary closures for public safety.

In 2014, WA DNR purchased the Gold Bar bouldering area from Manke Timber. Pedestrian access up the road and climbing are permitted. Please remember to never block gates with your car. Display your Discovery Pass and yield and be respectful with DNR staff and contractors when they are on site. WCC, Access Fund and our partners are actively working with DNR on planning and stewardship efforts. Stay posted at washingtonclimbers.org.

This information is a public crowdsourcing effort between the Access Fund,
and Mountain Project.You should confirm closures, restrictions, and/or related dates.

Description

Start low on Serenity Now, work up into the dihedral, but cut right onto the odd fin-like feature, and transition into the awesome slightly overhanging face to the right. Finish with (hopefully) control up a number of slopers, and do a not-insignificant rock-over to finish. The crux is the transition onto the fin from Serenity Now. As great as Serenity Now, but it is a little steeper, longer, and requires sloper-pawing to the finish. Another proud problem.

Protection

Pads! Spotters!

Directions

The series of edges and sloeprs running up and right from the start of Serenity Now, the obvious dihedral on the south side of Camp Serene.
